Motherhood is often defined by many things: unconditional love, selfless dedication, and the innate desire to nurture, protect, and care for your loved ones. Now, jscreen is inviting women to extend that care to their own health. By taking advantage of proactive tools like genetic testing, women can gain a clearer understanding of the genetic risks that could impact both them and their family.
Through accessible, at-home testing, jscreen empowers women with information about inherited cancer risks, including mutations in genes such as BRCA1 and BRCA2, which can be passed from parent to child. For those looking to give a gift with lasting impact, jscreen offers the jgift, a meaningful way to share the gift of proactive health with the women who matter most.
“Being proactive about your health is one of the most meaningful ways to care for your family,” said Dr. Matt Goldstein, CEO of jscreen. “When individuals understand their genetic risks, they’re better equipped to make informed decisions, both for themselves and for the people who depend on them.”
Hereditary cancers account for a significant portion of cancer diagnoses, yet many people remain unaware of their risk until a diagnosis occurs within the family. Genetic testing offers an opportunity to change that trajectory. With early insight, individuals can take proactive steps, such as pursuing preventive screenings, making lifestyle changes, and adopting other risk-reducing strategies before symptoms develop.
jscreen’s Hereditary Cancer Test analyzes dozens of genes associated with increased cancer risk, providing individuals with actionable information about their health. Because these genetic markers can be inherited, one person’s results may also offer critical insight into potential risks for their children and other relatives.
In addition to hereditary cancer testing, jscreen offers a Reproductive Carrier Screen, which evaluates the risk of passing on genetic conditions like Tay-Sachs disease and cystic fibrosis to future children. jscreen also offers a Combo Bundle to give women and prospective mothers a more complete picture of their genetic health, supporting both personal wellness and family planning decisions.
The testing process is designed to be convenient, affordable, and accessible. Individuals can request a kit online, complete a simple saliva sample at home, and receive results within weeks. Each participant also has access to licensed genetic counselors, who help interpret findings and guide next steps with clarity and care.
